Why did superjet crash

Only one departing flight has been canceled. If I am not mistaken, there are a little more than of them in use now.

Until yesterday, there was only one disaster in Indonesia [in ]. N o one has determined exactly why yesterday's crash happened yet. The problem was definitely not related to the aircraft itself. The problem is [likely] related to the organization of after-sale service, air traffic communication, whether there was a prediction and whether there was danger from a thunderstorm.

I think this catastrophe may affect Aeroflot, but not the Sukhoi Superjet, at least for now. There are failures we cannot predict. In this case, it has nothing to do with the aircraft itself. But many government structures do need a regional jet — whatever name it carries — to replace their old aircraft.

In the worst case scenario, the project can always be abandoned. The main thing is that there should be no more illusions or perfect pictures.

The SuperJet finally came to a halt on grass between runway 24L and a taxiway. The fact that the squawk was changed to on approach to the airport suggests that there was more going on than just a simple electrical fault. The captain chose to ignore the windshear warning too, which indicates a sudden, drastic change in the speed or direction of the wind.

Clearly, he was desperate to get the plane back on the ground as quickly as possible. The Mail reports that Captain Denis Evdokimov had reportedly never landed jet without autopilot on. Autoland systems are widely used to guide aircraft onto the runway using lines on the tarmac for guidance.

They were landing normally, with a glide path but they pushed the nose down and increased the speed before landing. If that happened, the consequences would have been even worse. The full investigation into the cause the crash that killed 41 will be some months in coming.
